Bella Briceno Bella Briceno 5'5" | DS/L Hays | 2023 State TX [2023] 5-5 Libero (HS: Hays/Club: Austin Performance/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Please welcome Bella to the 2023 Prep Dig State Rankings. We have her listed as the 58th best prospect in the state. She excels in serve receive and has a fantastic platform to deliver the ball to her setter. We are very impressed with how far away she keeps her arms from her body. This allows her to create great angles to rebound the ball. She reads very well in left back on the defensive side. Bella has a strong serve that keeps her opponenets off-balance. She understands the game and is always ready to help set the offense when her team is out of system. She is not afraid to get on the floor and picks up a lot of balls near her zone. We are looking forward to watching her progress throughout her career.
Reagan Fifer Reagan Fifer 6'2" | S Liberty Christian | 2023 State TX [2023] 6-0 Setter/Right Side (HS: Liberty Christian/Club: Excel/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Please help us welcome Reagan officially to the list as the 62nd best prospect in the 2023 class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She is a lengthy setter and right side out of the north Texas area. The ball comes out of her hands well and she is able to locate with accuracy on all sets along the net. She is being taught very well to jump set and that will help as she progresses at the setting position. Since she plays front row as a hitter/blocker also, it definitely helps her stock in our rankings. Reagan is a very capable offensive player on the right side as she is a lefty who hits at the peak of her reach. She will only get stronger as she gains muscle and grows into her frame. We will be watching her progress very closely and can’t wait to see what she does this club season.
Jenna Garza Jenna Garza 5'7" | S SA O'Connor | 2023 State TX [2023] 5-6 Setter (HS: O’Connor/Club: San Antonio Juniors / Verbal: Uncommitted)
Please welcome Jenna Garza Jenna Garza 5'7" | S SA O'Connor | 2023 State TX to the 2023 Prep Dig State Rankings. We have her listed as the 63rd best prospect in the state. Jenna stepped up this year as a sophomore and played varsity for her O’Connor program. She helped lead them to a wonderful 16-0 district record and a 23-1 overall record. She played very well in some huge matches in the UIL 6A state playoffs. Her ceiling is very high in the sport of volleyball and the setting position specifically. She played in 24 sets and had 107 assists along with 10 aces and 33 digs. Jenna has exceptional hands for a young setter. The ball comes out so smoothly. The great part about her abilities as a floor general is the way she can push the ball against flow with a lot of power. When the ball is pushed to the left side of the court, everyone thinks she is going to set the outside hitter, but is pushes the ball against flow all the way to the right side of the court for the right side hitter to destroy against a one on one block. She is a smooth player with great footwork. Jenna has the ability to move up the rankings very soon.
